A magnetic sensor for sensing an external magnetic field includes first and second electrodes and first and second magnetic tunneling junctions. The first and second electrodes are disposed over a substrate; and the first and second magnetic tunneling junctions are conductively disposed between the first and second electrodes and connected in parallel between the first and second electrodes. The first and second magnetic tunneling junctions are arranged along a first easy axis of the magnetic sensor. The first magnetic tunneling junction includes a first pinned magnetization and a first free magnetization, and the second magnetic tunneling junction includes a second pinned magnetization and a second free magnetization. The first free magnetization and the second free magnetization are arranged substantially in parallel to the first easy axis and in substantially opposite directions.

A structure of TMR includes two magnetic tunneling junction (MTJ) devices with the same pattern and same magnetic film stack on a same conducting bottom electrode and a parallel connection of conducting top electrode. Each MTJ device includes a pinned layer on the bottom electrode, having a pinned magnetization; a non-magnetic tunneling on the pinned layer; and a free layer on the tunneling layer, having a free magnetization. These two MTJ devices have a collinear of easy-axis and their pinned magnetizations all are parallel to a same pinned direction which has an angle of 45 degree to easy-axis; their free magnetizations initially are parallel to the easy-axis but directions are mutual anti-parallel by applying a current generated ampere field. The magnetic field sensing direction is perpendicular to the easy-axis on the substrate.

Magnetic field sensing method and apparatus of this disclosure uses two tunneling magneto-resistor (TMR) devices. Angles of the free magnetizations of the two TMR devices with respect to a fixed direction are set in a first to fourth period. In the first to fourth period, the two TMR devices act as a TMR sensing unit and a zero-field reference unit by turns, and each of the conductance difference between the sensing unit and the zero field reference unit is also obtained in each of the first to fourth period. Finally, the four conductance differences are summed up.

A non-via method of connecting a magnetoelectric element with a conductive line is provided. A magnetoelectric element is formed on a substrate. Spacers are formed on side walls of the magnetoelectric element. A first dielectric layer is deposited over the substrate and the magnetoelectric element. The first dielectric layer is planarized to a level above the magnetoelectric element. A second dielectric layer is deposited over the first dielectric layer. The first and second dielectric layers are etched to form a trench, exposing an upper surface of the magnetoelectric element. A conductive material layer is filled into the trench to form a conductive line on the magnetoelectric element.
